Botanical name: Rosa multiflora var. carnea Family: Rosaceae (Rose family)
Pink Multiflora Rose is a thorny, climbing shrub with a more
spreading then erect growth form. It is commonly seen growing wild in drains
in NE India. Leaves are borne alternately on the stems and divided into 5-11
leaflets. Each leaflet is broadly oval and toothed along its margin. The
fringed stipules at the base of the leaf stalk are the best characteristic
to use to distinguish this rose from other species. Clusters of numerous,
pink, double flowers, 1.9-3.8 cm across, blossom in late spring. The
original Rosa multiflora has white, single (one row of petals)
flowers. There is a single-flower pink variety Rosa multiflora var.
cathayensis. The
fruits are small, firm, red hips that may remain on the plant well into
winter. Older rose shrubs may obtain a height of 15 feet or more with a
root crown diameter of 8 inches.
